I bet you're waiting for fireworks
And memorizing sonnets
Expecting to find some butterflies in your stomach
But there's this doubt
And you just can't overcome it
That you're really holding on
Till something better comes along

Is it or isn't it the real deal?
Is it love baby that you feel?
Or is it indecision?
Is it or isn't it?
Was it or wasn't it the real McCoy?
That you were after when you got with that boy
Is it true that you're still fishing?
Is it or isn't it?

You've got your high standards, maybe
But your mind is in the gutter
Your hand's in her hand
But your eyes on another
We all can see what she soon will discover
You're just stringing her along
Till something better comes along

Is it or isn't it the real deal?
Is it love baby that you feel?
Or is it indecision?
Is it or isn't it?
Was it or wasn't it the real pearl?
That you were after when you got with that girl
Is it true that you're still fishing?
Is it or isn't it?

Got what you wanted
But now you don't want it
Yeah you're stringing him along
Till something better comes along

Is it or isn't it the real deal?
Is it love baby that you feel?
Or is it indecision?
Is it or isn't it?

Was it or wasn't it the real McCoy?
That you were after or was it just a ploy?
Is it really what you've been wishing?
Is it or isn't it?

Is it or isn't it the real deal?
Is it love baby that you feel?
Or is it indecision?
Is it or isn't it?
Was it or wasn't it the real McCoy?
That you were after when you got with that boy
Is it true that you're still fishing?
Is it or isn't it?

Well it's really none of my business
But is it or isn't it?
